Named for a governor
Morrill was incorporated on March 3, 1855, and named in honor of Anson P. Morrill, then governor of the state. James Weymouth, Benjamin Smith, Joseph Corning and Nathaniel Cushman made the first settlements in 1801 and 1802, buying their land from General Henry Knox, proprietor under the Waldo Patent. Anson Morrill, born in Belgrade in 1803, served as governor from 1855 to 1856, then went on to Congress and later served as president of the Maine Central Railroad.
Morrill lies in the central part of Waldo County, west of Belfast. Its surface is uneven, but with very little waste land, and Morey and Rowe hills are probably its highest points, though neither is very high. In the 1800s hay and potatoes were the chief crops. The main water power was at the village on the Passagassawakeag Stream, where shingle and stave mills and a horse-rake factory worked, and the Grange’s building served as the town hall. The town had 523 people in 1870 and 494 in 1880, and the 2020 census counted 971.
